Crossing my fingers that it is normal!

Too bad, right? After all the testing and appointments and medical this and that. I just needed a break from thinking about "it" for a while. I tried my hardest to just ignore it and go on with my life. It is what it is, right? So far, still no diagnosis, just more wait and see. So what...

Can't sit with correct posture anymore. Just can't do it. core muscles refuse! Also have issues when doing things that require lower back muscles. Like bending over to pick things up, my lower back just gets completely spastic, stiffens up and hurts like hell. Also, the longer I walk, the...

I've had bladder problems since the beginning. Retention, spasms, taking forever to actually empty, etc, etc. Not fun. I'm not on any meds for it yet, as I"m not getting UTIs and can still go on my own, it's just annoying. But I would bring it up to your Dr.

congratulations!

Welcome! I hope the pump trial goes well.

I take Advil pretty much around the clock. Good days I don't need to, but most of the time I take it just like my other meds. It definitely helps. Doesn't take it all away of course, and you can't take too much. But a low constant dose seems to keep things in check. And it seems there is a...

Oh my gosh, I sure wish I knew a way! I just went from having a root canal that got infected, to a week of vacation (which isn't really relaxing when you have young kids!), to having some horrible mystery virus that gave me sores all down my throat. On top of the day to day issues already. I...

Good luck!

Well, it was a good appointment. Very thorough. I spent 2 hours with the Dr and had some time with the Dr above him. They went over all my symptoms and did a long exam. All of which ended with no diagnosis. Basically they said at this point it is too soon to know and only time will tell...

This is me. Especially going up the stairs if I do it more than once. Like I go upstairs, forgot something so I go back down and back up again. By the time I'm done my legs want to collapse and I'm out of breath. Or drying my hair, my arms get exhausted, I get all sweaty like I've just done...

Have a great vacation Suzannah! Sometimes it is nice to have a change of scenery for your mnd and body.

So my neuro put in a referral for me to neuromuscular. And I have an appointment on this Thursday. I'm surprised it is so soon, but definitely happy. So finally maybe we will get somewhere. I'm glad you guys pushed me to get into a new neuro. I can't wait to see how it goes.

Susannah, I am eager to see how your appointment goes, we do seem to be very similar. And like you said, same age range. It is interesting to compare. Kosmoskatten, They have checked for structural problems. It looks like I had a minor herniated disc but it isn't causing these problems...

First of all. I want to thank you all for responding to me and reading my ongoing saga. It means a lot to have somewhere to come with this stuff. Especially Max, and others, that I know have a lot harder time doing this and have a lot more issues than I do. So thank you. Second. I sent my...
